Dayseeker

“Sad rock” is how vocalist Rory Rodriguez describes Dayseeker’s music. Formed in Orange County, California, in 2012, the band have expanded their post-hardcore roots with atmospheric textures, floating melodies and soaring choruses. At the centre is Rodriguez’s expressive voice, combining vulnerability with power. His lyrics explore grief, heartbreak and personal struggles. Through that emotional openness and their instinct for balancing heaviness with melody, Dayseeker have developed a distinctive style of their own.
